I'm not sure my useless camera could do justice to such an amazing watch.

One comment I got today was "nice Rolex boss, is it new"  :rofl:

ryan1835, they do get mildly annoying if you have plenty of watches and you rotate quite often. When it is the automatic's time, you have to wear it a little, and then set your time. You are good for the day or more after that. I remember the wind ups...and would never go back to those if given a choice. As for batteries, I am not overly fond of those either, as once your battery dies and it needs replacing, there goes your waterproofing. Automatics are to wind up, like solar power is to battery. :D

...And with automatics you can get a watch winder once you have a few, takes care of storage and winding.   :D

Manuals... I like them; I have a few again, best for simple watches with no complications, not even date. I can wear them once in a while and don't have to worry about adding another bank of winders.

The best looking and crafted watches are the mechanicals.

OT. Battery Stuff
I swore off batteries in 2000 with the purchase of a nice Constellation, still probably my favorite.  I've mellowed now a bit as I have a very nice Seiko with the impressive features of accuracy, and ability to adjust hour hand for timezone/dst changes without stopping the watch (brilliant); it's scary accurate, and the battery truely lasted it's rated 10years. It's also held it's value, if not increased. I decided I'll just do all battery replacements myself, and I limit the purchase price of battery operated watches.

Eco Drive! Fantastic technology. Hard to find a really nice watch, but for casual, friends, etc. unbeatable... and I can get perpetual which in an automatic with cost you the price of a car; and they have impressively slim watches.

If you need a really robust, shockproof, impact proof, etc... you need quartz watch... easier to find sporty than elegant, but you can find pretty nice ones in the Reactor line.
